That means careers in biotech now require more than scientific knowledge — they demand legal awareness, ethical reasoning, patient empathy, clear communication, and user-centred design. In this article, we’ll explore why biotech careers in the UK are becoming multidisciplinary, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design are shaping job descriptions, and what job-seekers & employers need to do to succeed in this transformed landscape.
